Default Model 29-4 5"

Picked up a nice 5" mod 29-4 today.
Can't find much info on it.
Is the 5" rare?

You will get more info in the post 1980 forum. I wouldn't call them rear, but you don't see them come up for sale every day either. Very nice revolvers!

Default 5"

If the unfluted version then only 500 made.

Pretty rare if you find one for sale.

Congratulations! I still don't have a .44 Magnum! I go back & forth whether I need 1 or not. Have my .45's though. Post some pictures, so we can drool over it! Bob

"It is a non-fluted 5" with hogue grips."
That certainly sounds like the limited edition one made for Hill Country Dis. in Texas. And as mentioned above, as few as 500 made.
I never could find one so I made my own years ago when the parts were still available from S&W. It is a well balanced and very accurate .44. One of my favorites.
